Suspended upside down in a dark room, the two-year-old puppy was beaten by the butcher shop owner to make its meat more tender.
But the puppy’s paws were tied so tightly with rope that the poor dog got an infection and its paws began to inflame. It was no longer fit for meat, so it was simply thrown into a rubbish bin near the butcher’s shop. Fortunately, its rescuer arrived in time and the puppy survived.
Its four legs had to be amputated to save its life, but the animal’s eyes still shine with a soft light of gratitude to its owner… ” It survived. And immediately after the operation it wanted to get back on its feet. It seemed to be smiling with its whole muzzle and wagging its tail,” says its rescuer.
The puppy was named Chi Chi, which means “love” in Korean. The puppy spent two months rehabilitating in a veterinary clinic before moving to its new home in Phoenix, Arizona. The dog is now waiting for its new owners. They even made artificial limbs for Chi Chi!
